It is the sense of Congress that— the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy has not adequately responded to Congress regarding the miscalculation and ambiguity risks posed by hypersonic weapons, specifically from submarine-launched platforms, including pursuant to the report required by section 1698 of the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 ( Public Law 115–232 ; 132 Stat. 2172); and the Secretary of Defense should coordinate technology maturation efforts to develop common technologies for hypersonics, and should leverage defense laboratories and university partners to lead foundational hypersonic research in areas the Secretary determines appropriate for the Department of Defense.
None of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2020 for the conventional prompt global strike weapon system may be used for a submarine-launched conventional prompt global strike capability, including with respect to developing or testing such a capability, unless such capability— is transferrable to a surface-launched platform; and is not exclusive to submarines. Not later than 120 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Navy shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the programmatic changes required to integrate the conventional prompt global strike weapon system into the DDG–1000 program or other surface ships.
